## What it does

\`blog-google` uses the user’s Google credentials to read blog and search data through several APIs. It can retrieve PageSpeed Insights and CrUX metrics, Search Console performance, URL Inspection results, GA4 organic traffic, Cloud Natural Language entities, YouTube video results, and Google Ads Keyword Planner data. The Indexing API is limited to job and livestream pages.

Available commands depend on the configured credential tier. An API key covers some read-only services; OAuth or a service account adds Search Console and URL inspection, while GA4 and Google Ads need their own settings. The shared configuration lives at `~/.config/claude-seo/google-api.json`. Before account reads, quota-consuming calls, paid requests, or writes, the skill asks for consent. Cloud Natural Language can create charges after its free allowance, so billing needs approval first.

## Install

### Claude Code (native platform)

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add AgriciDaniel/claude-blog --skill blog-google -a claude-code
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `~/.claude/skills/blog-google/SKILL.md` — Copy the whole skill folder; for one project use .claude/skills/blog-google/

### Codex

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add AgriciDaniel/claude-blog --skill blog-google -a codex
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.agents/skills/blog-google/SKILL.md` — For all projects use ~/.agents/skills/

### Cursor

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add AgriciDaniel/claude-blog --skill blog-google -a cursor
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.cursor/skills/blog-google/SKILL.md` — Cursor also reads .agents/skills/ and .claude/skills/

### GitHub Copilot

1. **GitHub CLI**

```bash
npx skills add AgriciDaniel/claude-blog --skill blog-google -a gemini-cli
```

2. **Platform CLI**
```bash
gemini skills install https://github.com/AgriciDaniel/claude-blog --path skills/blog-google
```

### Windsurf (Devin Desktop)

**Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.devin/skills/blog-google/SKILL.md` — The legacy .windsurf/skills/ path still works

### OpenCode

**Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add AgriciDaniel/claude-blog --skill blog-google -a opencode
```

### Claude.ai

**Claude.ai**
- Zip the folder and upload it in Settings → Capabilities → Skills

Where a file is given instead of a command, copy the files from the source to that path: https://github.com/AgriciDaniel/claude-blog/tree/HEAD/skills/blog-google/SKILL.md

## When to use it
- check a blog URL with PageSpeed Insights
- compare historical CrUX measurements
- retrieve Search Console performance data
- inspect whether a URL is indexed
- measure organic traffic in GA4

## Example prompts
- Run `/blog google` and check PageSpeed for my blog URL.
- Pull Search Console performance for my blog property.
- Set up the Google API credentials for this skill.

  Credentialed Google API calls for a blog: PageSpeed Insights, CrUX history,
  Search Console performance and URL Inspection, GA4 organic traffic, Cloud NLP
  entities, YouTube video search, Google Ads Keyword Planner, and the Indexing
  API (job and livestream pages only). Uses the user's Google credentials,
  quotas, and sometimes billing, and asks for consent before the first call.
  Runs only on an explicit request: /blog google, "run PageSpeed on this blog
  URL", "pull my Search Console data", "inspect this URL's index status",
  "set up Google API credentials". Shares config with claude-seo at
  ~/.config/claude-seo/google-api.json.

# Blog Google: Google API Data for Blog Performance

Bundled paths below use host Markdown substitution of `${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}`;
it is not an exported shell variable. Resolve them before execution, quote
paths, and refuse nonabsolute overrides. Pass `blog_reference_root` resolved
from `${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/../blog/references`, `blog_template_root` from
`${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/../blog/templates`, and needed sibling roots to agents.
Read the main reference `orchestration-details.md` before loading project
context; pass only its helper-fenced output to downstream agents.

Direct access to Google's SEO APIs for blog performance analysis. Provides real
Chrome user metrics, indexation status, search performance, entity analysis, YouTube
video discovery, keyword volumes, and PDF/HTML performance reports.

Most integrations have no usage fee within their documented quotas. Cloud
Natural Language requires billing and can incur charges after its free monthly
tier. Google Ads requires an eligible account and developer token. Never enable
billing or make a paid request without explicit user approval.

## Cost and consent gate (mandatory, read first)

This skill uses the user's Google credentials, quotas, and sometimes billing.

- **What it spends:** API quota on the user's Google Cloud project (small
  buckets: YouTube `search.list` has its own bucket of 100 calls per day, URL
  Inspection allows 2,000 per day per site, the Indexing API 200 publish
  requests per day); Cloud Natural Language bills after 5,000 free units a
  month; Keyword Planner needs a Google Ads account.
- **What it writes externally:** `index` sends a notification to Google and
  `setup` writes credential config under `~/.config/claude-seo/`. Everything
  else is read-only.
- **Consent:** before the FIRST call in a session that reads account data
  (`gsc`, `inspect`, `ga4`, `keywords`), spends a small bucket (`youtube`,
  batch `inspect`), can bill (`nlp`), or writes (`index`, `setup`), name the
  command, the property or URL, the expected call count, and the quota or cost
```
